Residents across the viewing area are dealing with the aftermath of a powerful line of thunderstorms that triggered tornado warnings and widespread reports of damage across the Triangle Wednesday. In all, there were more than 20 tornado warnings for the Triangle area.

Officials from the National Weather Service are expected to assess the damage later Thursday to determine if tornadoes were to blame and what their intensity was.

"We've been fortunate so far with no reports of serious injuries or widespread damages, but we're not out of the woods yet," Gov. Pat McCrory said. "We've seen before how deadly overnight storms can be. Please continue to stay tuned to the weather and heed directions from your local officials."

In Chatham County, there were reports of trees down around Siler City.

Earlier Wednesday, the National Weather Service issued a tornado warning for Wayne County just after 1 p.m. During that time, a mobile home was damaged along Sanderson Road in the Indian Springs community when its roof was torn off.
